Old Port Adelaide Scenes

1Port Adelaide Canal, some time in 1970. The Canal was intended to link Port Adelaide and Adelaide, but only a few hundred feet was constructed, with timber wharves along the sides. The wharves have since been demolished, and much of this filled in as a park and the Port Canal shopping centre built at the end.

2Port Adelaide telephone exchange in Commercial Road near the viaduct, April 1976. The original building has since been demolished.

3Railway viaduct seen from Ethelton in April 1976. The plaster works and wharf at left have since been demolished, and the area is now a park.

4Tug boat "Fearless" moored near the Jervois Bridge in April 1976. It is now on dry land in Birkenhead, and may be scrapped.
